| Note: | |
Ensemble Gombert directed by John O'Donnell. The 20th century produced an extraordinary amount of fine choral music. The first half of this program draws on the latter part of the century, and mainly on works that are not yet well known, though by major composers. Our performance of Rubbra's St Teresa Mass will be its Australian premiere. In the second half, we introduce the world to new works written for Ensemble Gombert this year by Calvin Bowman, currently an Australia Council Fellow. |
